ON LINEAR SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR (LSM) FOR HIGH SPEED PROPULSION
Linear synchronous motor (LSM) is under active investigation for electrodynamically suspended high speed vehicle. This paper presents the steady state performance characteristics of the LSM fed from a voltage-source frequency converter. A model, similar to the one used for conventional synchronous motor analysis, has been used to study the steady state behavior of the LSM system. The results of the following investigations are discussed in this paper: Effects of various section lengths of the guideway winding on the performance characteristics of the LSM System; Behavior of the LSM system at different speeds, and a comparative study of the Linear Induction Motor (LIM) and LSM systems. LSM is a relatively new technology and has potential in high speed propulsion.
